District track meets get underway this week as the road to state begins

The journey begins this week with district meets starting all across Houston. Beginning this year, there will an added postseason meet – the area meet – before state. Two districts will be aligned for each area meet, so 13-5A and 14-5A will compete together for regional berths and so on.

The top four finishers in each district will advance to the area, with the top at area making the region meet. From there, the top two qualify for state. Some district may agree to not hold area meets – 23-4A and 24-4A are one such pair that won’t hold a meet. In that case, the top two finishers from each district advance to regionals.

Here are the district track meets across the Houston area. Please send any completed results to hssports@chron.com.
